Closing the Evidence Gap in Fire‑Rated Junctions
Fire safety performance is often specified based on individual construction elements performance, yet the greatest uncertainty frequently occurs at the interfaces between these systems. This session examines why construction junctions are critical to effective compartmentation and overall building safety, and how assumptions at these interfaces can compromise fire performance.
Drawing on in-house technical expertise and British Gypsum’s first evidence based Fire Rated Junctions programme, the presentation highlights how bespoke fire testing has been developed to address a long standing industry gap and provide confidence through tested solutions.
Attendees will gain practical insight into validated junction details, evolving test methodologies and how performance led detailing can support compliance, confidence, and safer buildings in a post Building Safety Act environment.
